August 22, 1995

VW, union keep talking: The third round of wage talks between Volkswagen AG and Germany's metal workers union, IG Metall, ended without a settlement, the union said. The talks are set to move into their fourth round next Tuesday. The IG Metall union, which represents more than 100,000 workers at the automakers' six domestic plants, is seeking a 6 percent pay increase and continuation of the 28.8 hour week. Volkswagen is seeking greater flexibility in work hours, while not increasing them for the time being.
